Your Anger Towards Young Gamers

[Kinkaido]

I don't hate young gamers (I am one), but I do hate people who act like assholes online and who won't try games because of graphics.

I know many more immature, vulgar, and juvenile adults than I do children.

This is a honest question. I only ask you respect it. I'm 15 and I'm sure that makes some of you have a surge of anger or resentment towards me. I understand that you have these feelings, but I don't understand why. I am not the kind of teen who plays Black Ops all night over and over. I enjoy a wide variety of genres and I am not a console fanboy. I own the 3 current "in" consoles, using money I've earned from my summer job and money from my birthdays and gifts from Christmas. I'm not the little shit who stays in his room and ignores his parents. I've enjoyed all the great games many of you do, and I share your love of games. So why the hate? Please share your anger about my gaming generation and how to improve my interaction with the older members of the gaming community so I can improve my interaction with you all.
Thank you so much for reading.

Like everyone else is saying, the kids around your age tend to be very annoying and loud online. Obviously, you aren't one of them, although you do sound a bit pretentious by distinguishing yourself like this.

I'm not trying to be pretentious... I'm just seperating myself from a bad pack. I've really appreciated the "Your not like them" sort of comments and I share the same anger with the loud annoying kids... That's it, I guess.

Spoken like a boss.

Like a baws (sounds better).

I don't understand why people get angry with kids. They're just kids, let them be.

It's the whining, screaming adults that bug me online.

Yeah. I agree. I'm fine with kids. And coming from me, whose job is working with mostly teens with legitimate behavioral issues, I think that means something.

The only online play I do is TF2, but I try to encourage the kids on there. Or I give them props when they own me.

I find that the majority of them, so long as they have a mic that doesnt spam static and they know what they are talking about, its not so bad to talk with the ones i have met, i usually find that the majority of the annoying ones are in their 20's and think they are 'awesome trolls' :/

Its really only in FPS's that some younger gamers tend to annoy me, but otherwise they've never bothered me that much. They may be louder, but I'd guess that I've probably gotten more hate mail from older players.

In regards to younger gamers. Let me make this very simple, if you have not yet hit puberty, and you are using a mic. I will personally come to your house, punch you in the face, and then burn your headset along with every game you own.

I can't hate what I have on ignore
